Descripción del empleo

Malaga or Madrid (Hybrid 2 days a week on site), Permanent

Most job ads tell you the company is "world class" or "global". Which is true here, but let’s be honest - that doesn’t really tell you what you need.

What probably matters more to you is:

• You’ll be joining a growing Monitoring & Applications team.
• They’ve got about 30 applications that need maintaining, optimising, and making sure they don’t fall over.
• You’ll be the person making sure they run smoothly and scale properly

The role itself? Working for an IT Consultancy as an Application Engineer you’ll be involved in a mix of planning, implementing, integrating, and troubleshooting. You’ll automate wherever you can, keep performance high, and work with teams across Networks, Platforms, Storage and Virtualisation. If something’s broken, you’ll help fix it. If something could run better, you’ll make it happen.

Here’s what they need from you:

• Previous experience in a similar role involving Linux system administration experience.
• Hands-on with Kubernetes, Docker, VMware or OpenStack.
• You know your way around automation - Python, Puppet, Ansible, or Shell scripting will do.
• A great mix of attention to detail, teamwork and communication skills.
• If you’ve used monitoring tools like Prometheus or Grafana that would be highly advantageous.

Please note due to the nature of the role the client requires someone who is fluent in English and is able to support as part of an on call rota approximately 1 week a month.
